    Write good essays and dissertations; improve your writing to the highest academic level; revise and pass exams.

    UNDERGRADUATE, POSTGRADUATE, OR PHD STUDENTS: Do you need help with writing essays, a dissertation, or a doctoral thesis? Do you need to learn how to research and study? How to develop and organise your ideas? Do you need help editing your work? I can help you with all aspects of academic work.

    My goal is to provide students with a specialised service helping you write the best essays and dissertations that you can. Essay writing is an art, but there are clear strategies and techniques to structure essays and present coherent, cohesive, and quality work. I am familiar with marking criteria, having marked essays and dissertations, at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels for many years, designed assessments, and supervised PhD students, and helped many students achieve success.
